Abstract: Hundred and twenty chelonine and two sigalphine species are reported from Hungary and the adjacent countries within the Carpathian Basin. The species of the subfamily Cheloninae are divided in five genera and those of the subfamily Sigalphinae in two genera. The genera are enumerated in alphabetical sequence with an indication of the species number belonging to: (Cheloninae:) Ascogaster Wesmael (21), Chelonus Jurine (37), Microchelonus Szépligeti (49), Phanerotoma Wesmael (11), Phanero-tomella Szépligeti (2); (Sigalphinae:) Acampsis Wesmael (1) and Sigalphus Latreille (1) species. Four new synonyms were established: Ascogaster varipes Wesmael, 1835 = Chelonus catulus Mashall, 1885 jun. syn.; (Sigalphus^>) Microchelonus contractus (Nees, 1816) = Chelonus compressiscapus Szépligeti, 1898 jun. syn. and (Chelonus^*) Microchelonus erosus (Herrich-Schaeffer, 1838) = (Chelonella-*) Microchelonus analipennis (Fahringer, 1934) jun. syn. From among the 120 chelonine species 41 proved to be new to the Hungarian fauna. Localities of the species, except the frequent and common species, are detailed according to the Zoogeographie districts of the Carpathian Basin.Journal: Folia entomologica hungaricaJournal abbreviation: Folia ent. hung.ISSN: 0373-9465Publisher: , Editor(s): Mahunka, S.
